Interviews

Interviews are held on the first or second Saturday of November and are by invitation only. 

All ERAS applications will be reviewed with candidates for interview selected by the Program Director.  An informal reception will be held at Des Peres Hospital the Friday evening before the interviews.  A tour of Des Peres Hospital will be offered at that time for those who are unfamiliar with the Hospital.  

Intern Interview Day is Saturday, November 3, 2012.  Completed applications must be submitted through ERAS by October 27, 2012.

Interviews will be held on Saturday from 7a until all are completed.  For those unable to make it on the selected Saturday date, personal interview may be arranged at a date/time mutually convenient to the candidate and the faculty.
